Heartbreaking

The most heartbreaking thing in the world is when your kid is sick and hurting and there isn't much you can do to help them. Yes it's gross cleaning up puke all day, but if you're a mom you do it, and honestly it doesn't bother you that much because you're more worried about your kid than the puke all over you. You check fevers like a freak every couple minutes hoping that it went down, and you cuddle, sing, and tend to their every need while they are sick. Loving them is about the only thing you can do and it not only makes them feel better, but after you shower and get some sleep you'll feel better knowing that you helped them the only way you could. Being a mom is a tough job, especially when things aren't going so well and everyone in the house isn't healthy. I know that this will go through all the kids (one at a time of coarse because then it could even make a second trip and get everyone sicker longer), but for now I play it one day at a time. And even though my little man is sick and in pain I still thank God for him and the fact that it's just a little cold that will pass and my kids are actually really healthy boys. Some people aren't that lucky and I know they would love to have the chance to cuddle with their baby, sing to them, hug them, and yes even clean up the puke.
